WHAT TO DO BEFORE YOUR PERMANENT MAKEUP OR FINE LINE TATTOO PROCEDURE

To help you get the best results possible from your procedure, we’ve outlined our formula below which will help to ensure you get the best results possible.

How to prepare:

• Do not pick/tweeze/wax/tint/perform electrolysis one week before the procedure
  
• Do not tan two weeks prior or have sunburned face/skin
  
• Do not have any type of facial 2 weeks prior
  
• Do not use retinol/exfoliating acids/chemical peels 1 month prior
  
• Do not work out the day of the procedure
  
• Do not have fillers or Botox for 1 month prior
  
• Do not take Fish Oil or Vitamin E 1 week prior (natural blood thinners)
  
• Gently exfoliate treatment area to remove dead skin build up 1 week prior
  
• Stay hydrated before your procedure
  
• You must stop using any hair growth serums in area for 2 months prior
  

IN ORDER TO AVOID EXCESSIVE BLEEDING AND POOR COLOUR RETENTION:

• Do not drink alcohol 24 – 48 hours before your tattoo
  
• Do not consume coffee or any caffeine before your procedure
  
• Do not take an aspirin or ibuprofen for pain relief (these thin the blood)
  

INFORMATION REGARDING COLD SORES (LIPS ONLY):

• If you’ve ever had a cold sore, even if this was 10+ years ago, you must obtain cold sore medication to start 3 days prior to your treatment. Aciclovir tablets are recommended to prevent a severe outbreak of cold sores.
